Perpetual Investments managing director and chief executive David Deverall has taken a greater hands-on approach to the business by taking responsibility for Australian equities.

In a shake-up of its organisational structure, Australian equities and global equities group executive Emilio Gonzalez will now exclusively focus on the latter asset class.

People and culture chief executive Cathy Doyle will move into the newly-created job of Perpetual Investments business services group executive.

Australian equities head John Sevior will continue with his responsibilities.

"These changes place a strong strategic and investment management focus at the front end of Perpetual Investments and back it with a dedicated day-to-day business support system," Deverall said.
